We did cook our breakfast and supper meals there. The kitchen and laundry facility’s worked well. It is a quiet spot so sleeping after a hard day of activity was not an issue. I recommend this place.

We had a comfortable stay here while exploring Yosemite and it was perfect for us to come "home" to such a tranquil setting. I especially appreciated walking the land at twilight with the solar lights leading us up to magnificent sunsets. Also in the morning as we breakfasted and looked out over the meadow, the sun refracts off the glass dining table and the reflection of the trees that surround the house is so lovely. ##### Sharon R.

We enjoyed watching the deer in the backyard! (We had some trouble with a gate when checking in due to a one-time fluke situation related to the recent record snowstorms which the owner was very helpful in resolving.) ##### Steve S.

Not far from the Valley floor ~45 minutes , Close to Hetch Hetchy resevoir and the Tuolomne Valley there are numerous options for day hikes and exploration.

While it is not that long into Yosemite Valley, if you get tired of the drive, there are lots of other hikes closer, too. (We did both and loved it!) The bed downstairs (the only one we used) has a very comfortable mattress. Be sure to sit out on the deck for happy hour or your meals and breathe in the mountain air!

I didn’t mind the outdated decor. Cabin needs a few minor repairs: front door difficult to open, screen door broken, some odor in carpets. Otherwise, the rest was all in order. Communication ahead of the stay was lacking. I did not get any responses except automated ones from my messages via the VRBO app or any check in info until a few hours before the stay. It had me a bit concerned. But I believe it was likely an anomaly as others rated the communication well ##### Curtis C. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amanda O.

Dan's communication was friendly and superb as we thought Yosemite would not be an option for visiting due to a road closure. He sent us a detailed email walking us through everything to do in the area that was not Yosemite valley; places to eat, hikes at Hetch Hetchy, etc. His knowledge of the area is vast and very helpful. There is a lovely meadow on the property and our only regret is we did not get a chance to explore the acreage on the property. The location is so close to the entrance. It made going into the valley super easy as we got lucky and the road opened. ##### Amanda O. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Wendy F.

While the listing includes wifi and laundry as amenities, there is a note stating that no streaming or excessive internet is allowed, and overage charges will be passed on to the guest. This made it tough for working remotely while visiting. The washing machine was not in working order. The kitchen is equipped and we had no trouble cooking, but the entire place could use a lot of updates. (Upstairs mattress, pots and pans with , general decor...) The family of deer that live in the area were fun to watch from the windows and the neighbors were friendly. ##### Wendy F. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth D. Feb 24, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A perfect getaway My family & I chose Secret Meadow Retreats for a long weekend getaway. Our 11 yr old daughter passed away in 2020 after a long battle with a rare disease and we wanted a place to celebrate what would have been her 13th birthday where it was peaceful and we could unplug and just be together on such a difficult day for our family. This was the absolute perfect place to do so. We all felt so comfortable and at peace there. It really was so quiet and peaceful. The cabin was just exactly what we needed. Everything was extremely clean. The communication with Dan was excellent. The only issue we had was resolved very quickly. We had difficulty connecting to the DirecTV (because with a 6 yr old - there is only so much unplugging you can do!), but Dan was so responsive to our issue and even sat in on a 3-way call with Dish to get it working properly. We had it back up and running in no time. The location was close to Groveland and Yosemite. We spent an entire day in Yosemite and it took no time to get there. If going in February, be sure to time it for the Firefall - it was such a unique experience! We all have very fond memories of a weekend full of fun - playing board games in front of the fire, taking walks around the property and spending quality time together. Overall, it was such a wonderful experience for us to stay here. We will absolutely be back. ##### Elizabeth D. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Rita A.
